Make It Your Own

One of the best things about smoothies is how easy they are to customise.

For extra creaminess: Add half an avocado or a spoonful of nut butter.

For a plant-based version: Choose oat milk, coconut yoghurt, and maple syrup.

For a more filling breakfast: Blend in a tablespoon of chia seeds or rolled oats.

For a refreshing tropical twist: Add a handful of frozen mango or pineapple.

For a extra vitamins and minerals: Add a handful of fresh spinach
